11
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:46,200
Speaker 2: In episode one fifty six, What's Right with Nick Right?

12
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 2: Game one of the NBA Finals is upon us and

13
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 2: one of my weaknesses as a talk show host, and

14
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 2: let's be honest, they're not many, but one of them

15
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:06,280
Speaker 2: is I don't love the game preview. I love the recap,

16
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 2: I love the big picture stuff. But when we are

17
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 2: on the day of a game, the what we especially

18
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 2: before a series even starts, and we don't have any

19
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,240
Speaker 2: real data to go off of aside from what they've

20
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 2: done against other teams, I don't It's not my favorite.

21
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 2: I don't think it's what I'm actually the best at

22
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 2: and I just really want to get to the game.

23
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:33,479
Speaker 2: So with that in mind, I am going to try

24
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 2: something today that I don't know that I've tried in

25
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:41,479
Speaker 2: a year, Diora. I'm gonna hit the clock today. We're

26
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:46,120
Speaker 2: gonna have a nice, sharp, Okay, we're gonna have a nice, crisp,

27
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:48,400
Speaker 2: thirty five minute episode.

28
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 3: Absolutely, no way.

29
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 2: You don't think I can do it.

30
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 3: No, I don't.

31
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 2: You're doubting my ability. It's going to be concise to

32
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 2: the point. We're gonna get right to it. We're gonna move, move, move.

33
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 2: So with that in mind, yes, you can't ask questions

34
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 2: in the chat. We will get to those in about

35
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 2: twenty five minutes, which will be the time we get

36
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 2: to the CEA block. Here is what missed the cut

37
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 2: for today's show. Jimmy Butler has trademarked Jimmy Buckets. A

38
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 2: nineteen year old wins that Silly Cheese race in Great

39
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 2: Britain while unconscious, and Josh Hart tweeted about tasting breast milk.

40
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 2: Steven A was very bothered by this. I don't really

41
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 2: have a take on it. His tweet was, have y'all

42
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 2: ever tasted y'all significant other breast milk asking for a friend.

43
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 2: I think he didn't followed up. Somebody said it tastes

44
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,800
Speaker 2: like almond milk, and he said it tastes better at

45
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 2: least to see. C. J. McCollums says, sick conversation heard

46
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:53,919
Speaker 2: it goes down like almond milk, and I do believe

47
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,679
Speaker 2: he said it actually tastes better. However, we're trying to

48
00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:00,639
Speaker 2: hit the clock. We're trying to be concise today, Deora,

49
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 2: what are we leading off with?

50
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 3: So the Heat a coming off a grueling seven game series.

51
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 3: Now they are traveling to the Mile High City on

52
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 3: on little rest. Even Lebron says the altitude is no joke.

53
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 3: In the finals, if the home team wins Game one,

54
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 3: they win the series seventy five percent of the time.

55
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 3: So are the Heat drawing dead in game one and

56
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 3: therefore the series.

57
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 2: I do not believe the Heater drawing dead in game one.

58
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 2: I certainly don't believe they're drawing dead in this series.

59
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 2: And I think there are some factors that work in

60
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 2: the very short term in the Heat favor here. So

61
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 2: I think the fact that the Heat have played so

62
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 2: many more playoff games than Denver has well. I shouldn't

63
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 2: say so many more, but they have played more three

64
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 2: more games than Denver has, and the fact that they

65
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 2: just played US seven game series could hurt Miami later

66
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 2: in the finals. I don't think they are going to

67
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 2: be fatigued in game one of the finals. I listen.

68
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 2: I've talked a lot about the altitude and the altitude

69
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 2: being a problem for Denver's opponents, but that's most notable

70
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 2: when you're playing a team with Chris Paul till he

71
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 2: got hurt, and Kevin Durant and then Lebron James, older guys,

72
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,839
Speaker 2: then playing a team that has Jimmy Butler and a

73
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,040
Speaker 2: bunch of young guys, and I guess Kevin loves an

74
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 2: older guys well, but he doesn't play much. So I

75
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 2: don't think the altitude is gonna be as much of

76
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 2: a factor for Miami in Game one. What a legitimate,

77
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:53,120
Speaker 2: tangible advantage that I believe Miami has is they have

78
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:59,039
Speaker 2: been there before. Jimmy Bam Heroes obviously not playing, He'll

79
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 2: be there eventually. Hell, even Gabe Vincent, Kevin Love who

80
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:07,280
Speaker 2: we mentioned Spoe. They have all played except for Love

81
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 2: with the heat in the finals. Love played in four

82
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 2: finals with the Calves, this is not the biggest game

83
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:22,160
Speaker 2: of their lives. For everyone that matters on Denver except

84
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 2: for KCP, this is the biggest game of their life.

85
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 2: I think that experience edge and whether or not the

86
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 2: opening moments of the game are a little overwhelming mitigates

87
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:44,039
Speaker 2: somewhat the edge Denver has from what will be an

88
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,599
Speaker 2: insane home crowd in the opening minutes of the game.

89
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:50,839
Speaker 2: If you remember Game one of the Conference Finals, they

90
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 2: won that game based on the first quarter and the

91
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:56,919
Speaker 2: crowd was absolutely electric. I expect the crowd to be

92
00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:02,839
Speaker 2: absolutely electric again. But I do wonder if for really

93
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 2: everyone butt Jokic. I don't think it'll be too much

94
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 2: for Jokic at all, but for Jamal Murray, Michael Porter Junior,

95
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 2: Aaron Gordon, if there's gonna be a bit of holy

96
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 2: we're in the finals, and how much that will impact them.

97
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:25,479
Speaker 2: I also think to get back to the rest edge. Now,

98
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 2: I get it, teams with this type of rest edge

99
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 2: are I think eight and one in the last nine

100
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 2: NBA Finals in the series, eight and one in game one,

101
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:39,919
Speaker 2: so this is butt would be bucking that trend. I

102
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:46,720
Speaker 2: also think that Miami rolling the way they've been rolling.

103
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:53,680
Speaker 2: Denver was playing better than any team in the league

104
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 2: this postseason, but because of the sweep, now is it

105
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:04,160
Speaker 2: a week and a half of not playing, And I

106
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 2: know this is the old rest versus rust. I think

107
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 2: the rest edge will help Denver more as the series

108
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:17,960
Speaker 2: drags on than it will help them in Game one.

109
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 2: I think Miami being in a rhythm and feeling a

110
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 2: little rested in that going from playing every other day

111
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 2: as they were in the Eastern Conference Finals to having

112
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,760
Speaker 2: a few days off, So I don't think Denver's rest

113
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 2: edge will be massive here. I also, as I talked

114
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 2: about last week, recognize that Denver is on paper, the

115
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 2: better team, and Yokich is in route to being recognized,

116
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 2: if he's not already by most as the best player

117
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 2: in the league. From a pure x's and oh's standpoint,

118
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:07,080
Speaker 2: Denver should win the series. But it sure as hell

119
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 2: to me feels like there is something special about this

120
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 2: Miami team. They have been banging on the door for

121
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 2: four years. I don't think this is their last shot,

122
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 2: but it is definitely their best shot. And while I

123
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 2: think Michael Malone is a good coach, I think Eric

124
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:33,559
Speaker 2: Spolstra is the best coach in basketball, and I think

125
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 2: Jimmy Butler is going to rise to the occasion. And lastly,

126
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:47,959
Speaker 2: the Nuggets this year are unbeatable when Yokich has ninth

127
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 2: biggest basically double digit assists and a losing record. When

128
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:59,559
Speaker 2: he doesn't, jokicch is basically making all the same passes

129
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 2: every year. The question what that really is an indication

130
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:11,440
Speaker 2: of If the others are hitting shots, Denver is almost

131
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 2: impossible to beat. Are the others going to be overwhelmed

132
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 2: by the finals? And is Jamal Murray going to build

133
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 2: on the best playoff series of his career the Western

134
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 2: Conference Finals sweep against the Lakers, or is Jamal Murray

135
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 2: going to regress to the mean a bit in the

136
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 2: NBA Finals Because I don't this is a this is

137
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,880
Speaker 2: not a I don't think Jokic is gonna show up.

138
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 2: I think he's gonna run out of gas. That's why

139
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 2: I'm picking Miami. It's a I like Miami's coach more,

140
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 2: even though they're undrafted guys, because of the rhythm that

141
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 2: they're in. I like what I think Miami's others can

142
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 2: do more in this series. I like Miami's defense more.

143
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 2: I like the fact that Miami is going to be

144
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 2: able to add midway through the series, one of the

145
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:19,800
Speaker 2: most dynamic scorers on their team, and a little bit

146
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:24,640
Speaker 2: of the as Bruce said on the TV show Pixie Dust,

147
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 2: of the sports gods and Miami's time being now and

148
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 2: Denver's time maybe being next year, the year after coming

149
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 2: so close, losing a finals, coming back better, and then

150
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 2: breaking the door down, similar to what Miami would have

151
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 2: gone through making the finals a few years ago, making

152
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,960
Speaker 2: Game seven the Conference finals last year. I'm going with

153
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 2: Miami tonight, and I'm going with Miami in the series next.

154
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:55,200
Speaker 3: Okay, playoff. Jimmy has been a different beast this year.

155
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 3: He even predicted the future, offering finals tickets to Cook

156
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 3: Cook Golf during the season. If the Heat win, they'd

157
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,920
Speaker 3: cap off perhaps the best four year stretch in the league. Yeah,

158
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 3: is it possible the time after KD and the Warriors

159
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:11,680
Speaker 3: will be the Jimmy Butler era.

160
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:14,720
Speaker 2: No, I don't think it's gonna Listen, I don't think

161
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 2: we're about to have a Jimmy Butler era. I also

162
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:20,800
Speaker 2: don't think the.

163
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 4: League is.

164
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 2: Leaning towards eras right now. I think that we're about

165
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:35,080
Speaker 2: to have for the first time in more than forty years,

166
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 2: five different champions in five years, it's going to have

167
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:46,560
Speaker 2: been the Warriors, the Raptors, the Lakers. I'm sorry for

168
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 2: starting with the Raptors, the Raptors, the Lakers, the Bucks,

169
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 2: the Warriors, and now either the Heat or the Nuggets.

170
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,719
Speaker 2: So I don't think Miami is about to pop off

171
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 2: some dynasty, but I do think we have to acknowledge

172
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:11,680
Speaker 2: that since Jimmy Butler has been there, if they win

173
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 2: this title, no one has been more successful. And in fact,

174
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 2: if we just go to I mean in the last

175
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 2: five years, the year before Jimmy Butler got there, if

176
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,800
Speaker 2: they win this title, no one has been more successful.

177
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,440
Speaker 2: If they win the title, they will have one championship,

178
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:38,680
Speaker 2: two finals appearances, and three Conference finals appearances in the

179
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 2: last five years. The Warriors in that stretch have won title,

180
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:50,320
Speaker 2: two finals appearances, two Conference finals appearances. The Lakers have

181
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 2: one title, one finals appearance, two conference finals appearances, the

182
00:12:55,760 --> 00:13:00,360
Speaker 2: Bucks one title, one finals appearance, two Conference finals appearances.

183
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:07,960
Speaker 2: The Celtics would have zero titles, one finals appearance, and

184
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:12,280
Speaker 2: I think four conference finals appearances. The Heat will have

185
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 2: been the most successful team in the league over the

186
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 2: last half decade. They already and this is remarkable since

187
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:29,679
Speaker 2: Jimmy got there. The Miami Heat lead the NBA in

188
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 2: playoff victories. They're at thirty seven. The Celtics are at

189
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 2: thirty six, The Lakers and Nuggets are at twenty six.

190
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 2: I think the Warriors are at like thirty two, and

191
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 2: that is based on the culture of the organization, their

192
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:58,160
Speaker 2: ability to find talent where others can't, exceptional coaching, and

193
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:00,840
Speaker 2: one of the very best playoffs for from in the world.

194
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:02,800
Speaker 2: And Jimmy Butler next.

195
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:07,000
Speaker 3: Okay, and you said on TV that Jimmy has more

196
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 3: to gain than Jokic if he wins a ring. But

197
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 3: throughout the year you've said Jokic has the pressure, the

198
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 3: most pressure to win a ring. How can Jimmy have

199
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 3: more to game gain if Yokic has more to lose.

200
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,160
Speaker 2: Well, here's the thing. I actually don't think Jokic has

201
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:26,760
Speaker 2: more to lose. Uh. I think that Jokic has won

202
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 2: everyone over. I think that it is to me not

203
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:35,600
Speaker 2: realistic that Jokic is going to just be awful in

204
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 2: these finals. He's going to be somewhere from good to extraordinary,

205
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 2: and if the Nuggets don't win, it's going to be

206
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 2: more about what the heat did or what Jokic's teammates

207
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 2: didn't do, than about Jokic failing. So there was to me,

208
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 2: there was massive, massive pressure on Jokic this year to

209
00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 2: make the finals, and he did it, and he went

210
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 2: for Durant and Booker and then Katie and then uh

211
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 2: Lebron and Ad and he did it in spectacular fashion.

212
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 2: So yes, there will be a if they lose. All right,

213
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 2: Jokic at some point needs to win a ring, but

214
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 2: I think everyone will believe that he will at some point.

215
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 2: The reason so, the reason that Jimmy has more to

216
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:28,760
Speaker 2: gain is because there are still people I said on

217
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:31,960
Speaker 2: TV yesterday, Jimmy Butler is a top five playoff performer,

218
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:37,560
Speaker 2: and people argued with me about it. Nobody thinks he's

219
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:41,320
Speaker 2: a top five overall player in the league. But the

220
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:48,680
Speaker 2: results in the postseason are undeniable. And if they win

221
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:57,000
Speaker 2: the championship, it's an all time championship. Because he doesn't

222
00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 2: have any other great players, they worthy a seed. And

223
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 2: while I won't call him the best player in the world,

224
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 2: there are two guys at this point that everyone thinks

225
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:17,400
Speaker 2: are the best players in the world, Jannis and Jokic.

226
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 2: If they win the title, Jimmy would have beaten both

227
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 2: of them with inferior teammates. And so I just think

228
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:34,880
Speaker 2: that what he has to gain is a legendary status

229
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:43,120
Speaker 2: and there is no comp for this career. The guy's

230
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 2: second round picker, the last pick of the first round.

231
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 2: The team that drafts him is like, Oh, he's better

232
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 2: than we thought, but he's not worth the max. They

233
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:55,600
Speaker 2: trade him away. He goes to Minnesota. Minnesota has their

234
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 2: only postseason success of this entire town Zra with him.

235
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:03,000
Speaker 2: They then get sick of him. He goes to Philly.

236
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:07,920
Speaker 2: Philly has the best playoffs they have had in any

237
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 2: year with him Beid. With him, they come within a

238
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:14,119
Speaker 2: buzzer beater in Game seven of Round two of maybe

239
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 2: going to the NBA Finals, certainly going to the conference finals.

240
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:22,160
Speaker 2: He then goes to Miami. They instantly make a finals.

241
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,639
Speaker 2: People call it a fluke. Two years later they're the

242
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:28,920
Speaker 2: one seed and come within a shot of making another finals.

243
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:32,000
Speaker 2: And then this year they're in there for a guy

244
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:35,600
Speaker 2: who in the regular season is a good but not

245
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 2: a great player. There is no comp for it. That's

246
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:43,440
Speaker 2: why he has the most to gain. I actually think

247
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,400
Speaker 2: neither one of these teams has much to lose here

248
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:49,840
Speaker 2: because you might say there's pressure on Denver because they're

249
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:55,160
Speaker 2: such heavy favorites. But if Miami beats them, no one

250
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 2: is going to be able to deny anymore that Miami

251
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:01,320
Speaker 2: is a special group and a special team.

252
00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,640
Speaker 3: Next, if you look at these teams in the finals,

253
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,840
Speaker 3: they don't look like the other recent finals teams. The

254
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 3: Nuggets have a homegrown roster and the Heat are full

255
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 3: of undrafted players. Is this the finals evidence that super

256
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:15,760
Speaker 3: teams are dead?

257
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 2: Well? I talked super teams a few weeks ago on

258
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:20,560
Speaker 2: the show.

259
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:21,680
Speaker 3: And.

260
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:26,280
Speaker 2: The fact of the matter is the just create a

261
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:31,280
Speaker 2: super team out of thin air. It works for Lebron

262
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 2: and Lebron only. The other champions are homegrown teams that

263
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 2: added a piece. The Warriors were already a champion. Well,

264
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:45,840
Speaker 2: the Warriors were a homegrown team that then added Andrea

265
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 2: I Guidala as the final piece, and then they added

266
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:52,719
Speaker 2: Kevin Durant as an embarrassment of riches. The Bucks were

267
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 2: a homegrown team that added Drew Holliday. The Raptors were

268
00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 2: a homegrown core of everything that then added the superstarring

269
00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:06,000
Speaker 2: Kawhi Leonard. The Nuggets a homegrown team that added a

270
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,760
Speaker 2: minor piece in Aaron Gordon. The Heat are a homegrown

271
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 2: team that added the important piece in Jimmy Butler. The

272
00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:20,639
Speaker 2: just created team. Thing that works for Lebron that hasn't

273
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:25,280
Speaker 2: worked for anybody else, and that Diora is our first segment.

285
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:11,680
Speaker 3: with financial gambling.

286
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 2: There are a million financial gambling finals, finals gambling. Fine. See,

287
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:21,760
Speaker 2: I just don't know if you're quite ready to bring

288
00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:24,639
Speaker 2: us back into this. I messed up once. Well, you

289
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:26,400
Speaker 2: know got you.

290
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:28,359
Speaker 3: Mess up every day you come to work, you know,

291
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,080
Speaker 3: by not letting me be the.

292
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:31,719
Speaker 2: Main Oh okay, sorry, go ahead.

293
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:33,919
Speaker 3: There are a million ways to bet on the finals.

294
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:36,840
Speaker 3: It feels like a good time to bring back the offer.

295
00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:39,440
Speaker 3: But Demante's in LA and I'm too young to gamble,

296
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 3: so we're gonna make our own.

297
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,120
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, So you guys are gonna put up

298
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 2: and I'll read through them for the audio audience. The

299
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 2: potential picks that I can have to make this parlay.

300
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:59,920
Speaker 2: So the heat specials are Caleb Martin to score third

301
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:03,880
Speaker 2: plus in any game is plus five point fifty. Jimmy

302
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:06,920
Speaker 2: Butler ten or more assists in any game is plus

303
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:10,760
Speaker 2: one fifty. And Bam out of bio to average ten

304
00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:17,600
Speaker 2: plus rebounds that's plus two hundred. So of those three options,

305
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 2: the only one that's attractive to me at all is

306
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:24,720
Speaker 2: the Jimmy Butler one. And I'm gonna break out my

307
00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:28,880
Speaker 2: parlay calculator here. So Jimmy Butler to have a ten

308
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:35,400
Speaker 2: plus assist game I think is likely. I think it's

309
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 2: better than fifty percent. I'm getting plus one fifty. I

310
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:42,119
Speaker 2: don't think Caleb Martin even at five point fifty to

311
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,600
Speaker 2: one or fifty five and a half to one. Pardon me,

312
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 2: thirty points is rich and averaging ten rebounds is very difficult.

313
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 2: It takes one bad rebounding game to ruin that, and

314
00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 2: Jokers such a great rebounder. I don't like that, all right.

315
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,920
Speaker 2: Let me see the Nuggets specials and see Jokics to

316
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 2: average a triple double is minus one twenty five. Jamal

317
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:13,119
Speaker 2: Murray to have the highest scoring game for the Nuggets

318
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:19,800
Speaker 2: is plus two hundred. Michael Porter Junior to average fifteen

319
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 2: and a half points is minus one fifteen. So I

320
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:31,080
Speaker 2: will take Michael Porter Junior average because that's just an

321
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:34,080
Speaker 2: over under. Because it's minus one fifteen on both. I

322
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 2: will take Michael Porter Junior to average under one fifteen

323
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:45,240
Speaker 2: or fifteen and a half points per game in the series. Yo,

324
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:49,800
Speaker 2: the yogis triple double. I'm just not gonna lay minus

325
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,560
Speaker 2: money on something that only has been done once in

326
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:56,399
Speaker 2: finals history, was done by Lebron. Jamal Murray having the

327
00:22:56,440 --> 00:23:00,919
Speaker 2: highest scoring game on its face looks good, particularly at

328
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:04,359
Speaker 2: plus two hundred, But I think the Heat's game plan

329
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:08,200
Speaker 2: is gonna be let Yokic score forty if he wants

330
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,399
Speaker 2: and try to take away everything else. So I'll go

331
00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:15,800
Speaker 2: Michael Porter Junior averaging under fifteen and a half points

332
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:19,239
Speaker 2: per game at minus one fifteen. And then there are

333
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:24,840
Speaker 2: some championship specials yo Kics Finals MVP minus three sixty,

334
00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 2: Butler Finals MVP plus three thirty, and the finals to

335
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 2: end in six at plus two forty. So I'm gonna

336
00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:40,600
Speaker 2: go Butler Finals MVP at plus three thirty. Let me

337
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:47,119
Speaker 2: just see if we I my pick is heat in six.

338
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:50,800
Speaker 2: So let me just see if I added in the

339
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 2: finals to end in six. So we would have plus

340
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,680
Speaker 2: one fifty on Jimmy to have a ten plus assist game,

341
00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:00,600
Speaker 2: minus one fifteen on Michael Porter Junior fifty and a

342
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,639
Speaker 2: half points per game. Butler Finals MVP in the finals

343
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:07,840
Speaker 2: end in six. Put all that together, that's sixty seven

344
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:11,840
Speaker 2: to one. So one thousand bucks you would win sixty

345
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:15,520
Speaker 2: seven thousand. If we take out the finals to end

346
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:22,679
Speaker 2: in six, it's nineteen to one. And that's actually the

347
00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:31,080
Speaker 2: one I'm gonna roll with. So Butler Finals MVP, Porter

348
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 2: Junior under fifteen and a half points per game, Jimmy

349
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 2: ten plus assists, roll it in one game or more,

350
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:42,280
Speaker 2: roll it all together, it's nineteen to one. We're gonna

351
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 2: make that bet. I accept that offer that I just

352
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 2: gave myself. Matt's putting it into the rundown. Greatly appreciated

353
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:50,400
Speaker 2: DIORA time now for our game.

354
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,600
Speaker 3: Okay, So we're gonna start a new game today called

355
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:59,399
Speaker 3: nick GPT. So there's a lot of confusing sports news

356
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:01,600
Speaker 3: out there, and I can't wrap my head around all

357
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:03,520
Speaker 3: of it. So I decided to enlist the help of

358
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:07,840
Speaker 3: a new and maybe dangerous AI program called nick GPT.

359
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:09,800
Speaker 2: Oh, it's a cool graphic they put up there. Okay,

360
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 2: go ahead.

361
00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:12,600
Speaker 3: We don't know how powerful it is yet, but let's

362
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,399
Speaker 3: see if it can help us translate what some of

363
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:19,280
Speaker 3: the people in sports in the sports world are saying. Okay,

364
00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:23,440
Speaker 3: general manager one general manager Bob Myers has left the Warriors,

365
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:27,479
Speaker 3: saying this job requires complete engagement, complete effort, and if

366
00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:29,719
Speaker 3: I can't do it, and if you can't do it,

367
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:33,159
Speaker 3: you shouldn't do it at all. Basically, And that's what

368
00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 3: he said. But what did he mean, Nick GPT translate

369
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:36,680
Speaker 3: this statement?

370
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:42,560
Speaker 2: Man, have you seen the new collective bargaining agreement? My

371
00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:44,920
Speaker 2: owner said he doesn't want to pay four hundred million

372
00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:48,000
Speaker 2: in luxury tax. That's what we're gonna have to do.

373
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:51,399
Speaker 2: The only way not to is to trade away Jordan Bull,

374
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:54,480
Speaker 2: who I foolishly signed to one hundred and twenty eight

375
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 2: million bucks. But my hand was kind of forced because

376
00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 2: he had just gotten his jaw cracked by Draymond Green.

377
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:02,520
Speaker 2: Draymond's about to come to me and ask me for

378
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:06,760
Speaker 2: more money. Clay won't you know, doesn't seem to want

379
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,480
Speaker 2: to acknowledge you. The shell of his former self. He's

380
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 2: gonna want an extension. I ain't got time for all this.

381
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:14,800
Speaker 2: I don't want to deal with it. I got my

382
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:18,520
Speaker 2: four championships, my six finals appearances. I'm a legend in

383
00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:21,960
Speaker 2: the Bay. I love Steph, but I'm out of here.

384
00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:26,000
Speaker 2: That's what he That's what he actually meant. Next.

385
00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:29,080
Speaker 3: Okay, Bengals receiver Tyler Boyce.

386
00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,359
Speaker 2: You're skipping the Bills one. I think it was my bad.

387
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:35,359
Speaker 3: That's right after offseason practice. After off season practices began,

388
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:41,439
Speaker 3: Bill's coach Sean McDermott said, I've seen a different Josh

389
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:45,159
Speaker 3: Allen this offseason. Not that it was bad before, but

390
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:48,080
Speaker 3: he's got a new sense of focus and determination, which

391
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:50,920
Speaker 3: is good. Nick Gpt translate this statement.

392
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:55,119
Speaker 2: Man. So far this offseason, Josh isn't fumbling the ball

393
00:26:55,119 --> 00:27:00,880
Speaker 2: in the red zone, throwing head scratching picks, recognizing he's

394
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,960
Speaker 2: a quarterback not a fullback, not trying to run people over,

395
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:12,280
Speaker 2: and hopefully we get for the first time in the

396
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:18,560
Speaker 2: last three years, a full season of Josh Allen playing

397
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:24,359
Speaker 2: smart quarterback instead of trying to play superman quarterback. He's

398
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 2: got as much talent as everyone as anyone in the

399
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:31,199
Speaker 2: league aside from Patrick Mahomes, and he has none of

400
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:34,640
Speaker 2: the awards, none of the consistency, none of the success

401
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 2: because at times he thinks he's back at Wyoming trying

402
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:42,040
Speaker 2: to throw the ball out of the stadium or trying

403
00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 2: to just run everyone over. And that's not what we need.

404
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:49,200
Speaker 2: We love Josh, but we need him to settle down

405
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,120
Speaker 2: and be a little less of a roller coaster if

406
00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:56,000
Speaker 2: we're ever gonna get over the hump. That's what he

407
00:27:56,040 --> 00:28:01,000
Speaker 2: means next. Okay, so now to the band. Okay.

408
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:04,480
Speaker 3: Mangles receiver Tyler Boyd said that he believes that he

409
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 3: wasn't If he wasn't hurt and played the whole game,

410
00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:10,920
Speaker 3: they would have beat your Chiefs in the AFC Championship.

411
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:15,400
Speaker 3: He said he was the key factor. Nick gpt trump

412
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 3: translate this statement.

413
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:24,560
Speaker 2: My AI technology is not sophisticated enough to translate either

414
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 2: just a bold faced lie or this level of delusion.

415
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:34,919
Speaker 2: The idea that Tyler Boyd was the key to the

416
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:41,240
Speaker 2: Bengals who have Jamar, Chase t Higgins, Joe Mixon, it's

417
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:47,720
Speaker 2: just delusion, and I you know, I respect the confidence,

418
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:52,720
Speaker 2: but there's nothing to translate here. It's just nonsense. And

419
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:56,640
Speaker 2: the idea that if they had Tyler Boyd they would

420
00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:59,360
Speaker 2: have been able to stop Patrick Mahomes on the final

421
00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 2: drive of the game is vexing considering the fact that

422
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:07,000
Speaker 2: it's that he plays offense, not defense.

423
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:10,640
Speaker 3: Next, we talked Tuesday about Aaron Rodgers at the Taylor

424
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,479
Speaker 3: Shift concert. Now we have a video of him dancing

425
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:16,160
Speaker 3: and the confetti screaming the Jets win the Super Bowl.

426
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,320
Speaker 3: Nick's GPT translate this statement.

427
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 2: Ayahuasca is a hell of a drug. To misquote Rick James,

428
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 2: I mean, I get it. You're at MetLife, it's where

429
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:32,360
Speaker 2: the Jets play. They're dropping confetti, you're having a good time.

430
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:35,520
Speaker 2: You may or may not be on hallucinogens, but give

431
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:41,040
Speaker 2: me a break and The more interesting Aaron Rodgers' story

432
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:44,280
Speaker 2: is the interview or in the article in The Athletic

433
00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:49,800
Speaker 2: where he just doubles down on the I wasn't ducking

434
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:52,920
Speaker 2: anyone's phone calls. I just have bad service in my house.

435
00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:58,160
Speaker 2: You have to FaceTime me nonsense, and it says he's listen, sorry,

436
00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:01,040
Speaker 2: not sorry about not talking to Brian go quote. I

437
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,880
Speaker 2: talk to people I like into quote. That's to me

438
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,720
Speaker 2: the more interesting Rogers story. But I'm kind of sick

439
00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:09,240
Speaker 2: of the Rogers stories at this point. And by the way,

440
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 2: he just missed his fourth rate practice with an injured calf,

441
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:15,920
Speaker 2: which is at least at this point moderately concerning next.

442
00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 3: Tom Brady was asked if he was coming back. He said,

443
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 3: I'm certain I'm not playing again. Nick Chpt translates this statement.

444
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 2: I believe that Tom Brady believes that right now. That's

445
00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:32,680
Speaker 2: what I believe. I believe that right now, Tom Brady believes.

446
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:33,720
Speaker 3: You believe that he's wrong.

447
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,800
Speaker 2: I'm not saying that, I'm saying that right now. I

448
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:39,600
Speaker 2: believe that Tom Brady believes that.

449
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:46,320
Speaker 3: All right, last one, okay, Speaking of washed Patriots quarterbacks,

450
00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:50,120
Speaker 3: Mac Jones, Mac Jones had this to say, about practice

451
00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:52,960
Speaker 3: with Bill O'Brien. It's been really good. It's been normal.

452
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:57,880
Speaker 3: Nick cheap wow, GPT translate this statement.

453
00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:01,640
Speaker 2: I've got an offensive coordinator is offensive coordinator as opposed

454
00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:06,640
Speaker 2: to that wanna be rocket scientist, defensive coordinator and special

455
00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:11,360
Speaker 2: teams Coach Belichick saddled me with last year. It's nice

456
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:14,920
Speaker 2: to actually have an offensive coordinator as my offensive coordinator.

457
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:18,040
Speaker 2: That's what I mean by that. That's ten minutes on

458
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:19,880
Speaker 2: the dot. I gotta tell you, do you or I

459
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,560
Speaker 2: think the audience is probably wanting more today? That's what

460
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:26,240
Speaker 2: they say, wanting more. We answer your questions next, What's right?

461
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:36,000
Speaker 3: Welcome back, episode one fifty six. Now we're gonna answer

462
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:41,400
Speaker 3: your listener questions. No, Rodrigue Rodriguez says, question for me,

463
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:44,959
Speaker 3: since you've started doing the podcast, have you become a

464
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:47,760
Speaker 3: fan of a player or a team that you weren't

465
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:51,880
Speaker 3: very familiar with before? Honestly, not really.

466
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:52,600
Speaker 2: I mean I was.

467
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 3: Always pretty familiar with basketball, and I always knew.

468
00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 2: And Door hasn't been doing the show during football and

469
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 2: doesn't like football.

470
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:05,320
Speaker 3: But maybe I don't mind watching football, but we don't

471
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,280
Speaker 3: really go to football games as a family.

472
00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 2: That's right. I don't like going to football games. I

473
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:14,800
Speaker 2: love going to basketball game. Yes, but you did during

474
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:18,920
Speaker 2: your you know probably you know I've mentioned this a

475
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:20,600
Speaker 2: few times on the show, but you goes to a

476
00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:25,520
Speaker 2: very fancy boogie school with fancy boogie people, and prom weekend.

477
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,000
Speaker 2: You know, there's the dance, but then of course the

478
00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 2: post dance multi day event in the Hampton's. And you

479
00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:37,479
Speaker 2: told me that even while you were at your post

480
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:41,360
Speaker 2: dance partying in the Hamptons, you checked in on the

481
00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:42,280
Speaker 2: NBA score.

482
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:44,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I did, But that has nothing to do with players,

483
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 3: that's just no.

484
00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:49,560
Speaker 2: But you are, You've I think you've started to like

485
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:51,600
Speaker 2: the sport a little more. Is that fair?

486
00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 3: I guess sure.

487
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:55,840
Speaker 2: You're gonna watch the finals Game one with me tonight,

488
00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:58,280
Speaker 2: at least the first half. You go to bed quite

489
00:32:58,280 --> 00:32:59,800
Speaker 2: early when you're at home, but.

490
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:02,640
Speaker 3: I go to my room, Acquiere.

491
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:04,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, she yeah, that's right. She goes to her room.

492
00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 2: It's probably on the phone or whatever for hours on end,

493
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:10,280
Speaker 2: but she says, I'm going to bet. I'm like, it's

494
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:11,280
Speaker 2: eight thirty.

495
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:16,320
Speaker 3: But she's maybe all right, what's next? Okay, next question

496
00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:20,520
Speaker 3: joe Ess asked who got in the French? Who you

497
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:24,040
Speaker 3: got in the French Open. Now that you're a boy Natal.

498
00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:30,560
Speaker 2: Doll allow, it's not in the draw. Oh my gosh.

499
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:31,920
Speaker 3: I don't need this right now.

500
00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:36,200
Speaker 2: Did you call him Natal? I did, can't can't come on,

501
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:41,160
Speaker 2: diora uh, I don't need this. Listen. I love uh,

502
00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:47,200
Speaker 2: I do love Nadal. But I'm the and I'll be

503
00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:51,520
Speaker 2: honest with you. I have not been locked into the

504
00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:56,880
Speaker 2: French Open yet. But the next guy that I'm gonna

505
00:33:56,920 --> 00:34:01,560
Speaker 2: love is the guy everyone's gonna love, Alcarez. And so

506
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:05,880
Speaker 2: I'll go with Carlos the Spaniard, a different Spaniard after

507
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:09,239
Speaker 2: being a Doll guy. I'll go with Carlos Acrez in

508
00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:13,880
Speaker 2: the French Hopefully he wins. There was an unbelievable shot

509
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:17,600
Speaker 2: he made that a couple matches ago that his opponent

510
00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:21,760
Speaker 2: almost seemed demoralized by and then just clappedform all right, next, okay.

511
00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:25,080
Speaker 3: Supernova twenty two asked does Monty have a chance to

512
00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:29,560
Speaker 3: build and develop something in Detroit? He secured a huge payout,

513
00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:32,920
Speaker 3: but the Pistons haven't been a winning franchise in a

514
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:33,640
Speaker 3: long time.

515
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:36,680
Speaker 2: So I think MANI with the Pistons works really well.

516
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:39,680
Speaker 2: I think it's smart. I think asking him to build

517
00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:43,080
Speaker 2: a culture and help teach a team learn how to

518
00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:48,399
Speaker 2: win like he did in Phoenix is the exact right

519
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:50,919
Speaker 2: role for him, even if you have issues with him

520
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:54,120
Speaker 2: getting a team over the hump to a championship and

521
00:34:54,200 --> 00:35:00,319
Speaker 2: in Detroit they're just trying to learn how to win. Listen,

522
00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:02,839
Speaker 2: they paid them a ton of money. I was I mean,

523
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:06,000
Speaker 2: six years, seventy eight million dollars for that. I mean, god,

524
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:11,439
Speaker 2: dog man, that's Pat McAfee money. But that is that's

525
00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:16,879
Speaker 2: a huge, huge contract. But I get it. They want

526
00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:19,480
Speaker 2: to add credibility to the organization. They have the fourth

527
00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 2: pick in this year's draft or the fifth pick in

528
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,920
Speaker 2: this year's draft, and then you add to it that

529
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:28,640
Speaker 2: they have Kid Cunningham coming back. I get what they're

530
00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:30,200
Speaker 2: trying to do. I think that was a smart hire,

531
00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:30,560
Speaker 2: all right.

532
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:35,560
Speaker 3: Last one, Aurora asks Nick, would the Sixers be chasing

533
00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:39,320
Speaker 3: their second ring by now if they kept Butler?

534
00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:50,560
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know. So the year after the

535
00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:58,319
Speaker 2: Raptors won, the Lakers won, then the Bucks, then the Warriors,

536
00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:02,279
Speaker 2: and I don't know that the Sixers would have won

537
00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:09,280
Speaker 2: any of those titles. Maybe last year, but they certainly

538
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 2: would have made a conference Finals, and I believe would

539
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:15,919
Speaker 2: have made at least a finals. Listen, it's an all

540
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 2: time front office gaff that sticking with now, everybody says

541
00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:25,480
Speaker 2: they picked Tobias Harris over Jimmy Butler, But Jimmy the

542
00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:28,200
Speaker 2: real problem was Jimmy didn't want to be there because

543
00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:33,399
Speaker 2: he sniffed out Ben Simmons earlier than everybody else, and

544
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:36,680
Speaker 2: the Sixers didn't want to believe him on it. He

545
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:39,759
Speaker 2: obviously was proven correct and vindicated, so they went with

546
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:43,879
Speaker 2: Tobias Harris because they would have had to essentially move

547
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:48,120
Speaker 2: on from Ben Simmons to keep Jimmy. Credit to Jimmy

548
00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:51,560
Speaker 2: for seeing that before anybody else saw it, way before

549
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,840
Speaker 2: anybody else said it. And credit to us Diora. This

550
00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:59,319
Speaker 2: was a nice, tight, forty minute show. You didn't think

551
00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:02,080
Speaker 2: I could do it? How about that? There? It is?

552
00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:06,160
Speaker 2: What's Right? We will talk to you guys on Tuesday morning,

553
00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:11,239
Speaker 2: Game one of the finals tonight, game two on Sunday.

554
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:14,319
Speaker 2: So on Tuesday we'll have a very good idea of

555
00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:16,480
Speaker 2: what direction these finals are headed in. I will see

556
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:20,160
Speaker 2: you guys at three o'clock today on FS one. What's Right. Bye,
